Navigating the Illegal Migration Act and its Implications for Human Rights

The recently passed Illegal Migration Act in the UK has sparked heated debates and concerns about potential human rights violations. The Act aims to address unlawful migration but has been criticised for likely contradicting international human rights and refugee law. The Act’s compatibility with the European Convention on Human Rights has also been questioned, leading to discussions about the UK’s commitment to upholding human rights standards globally. Striking a balance between border control measures and human rights protection remains a critical challenge for the UK as it moves forward with implementing the Act.
